500 ml can. poured golden with no head to speak of. looked so flat in the glass that it could be mistaken for apple juice. decent flavours with a little sweetness and a well rounded finish. not a bad beer. shows potential but not well executed.

OleR (3510) - Oslo, NORWAY - JUL 7, 2007
Can. Thin greyish head with big bubbles. Yellow golden body. Aroma of dry, slight skunky hops with some vague scents of malt. Weak sourish taste. Short neutral finish. Average minus.

JohnBarleycorn (537) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - JUN 26, 2007
Can. Medium gold. Forward aroma boasts your typical lager profile of grain, hops and malt. Standard lager-like palate. Unfortunately, the flavour is not nearly as forward as the aroma, offering simple glimpses of cereal, hop bitterness and a touch of caramel. About as average as a lager gets.

Weak flavor, nothing distinctive from other pale lagers. Pretty sweet. No hop flavor.

Golden colour, white head. Not much of an aroma. Not much of a taste, too watery.

Don’t ya just love those green bottles? Date code 1719, aged well! My bottle did not say pilsner on it, it said Bavaria Holland Beer. Sometimes these out of country labels are difficult to ID for a rating. Pop the lid and there is immediately a short pungent veggie cabbage aroma. Once poured it mellows into a simple, clean and perhaps sweet smell. Looks like any other ubiquitous pale yellow American lager. Taste is a little pinchy, like an instigating pilsner. A small back of throat mild bitter linger hangs for a while. Good medium carbonation. Has a very thin froth on top for a head. Stacks up well against American pale lagers and perhaps even pilsners. Overall not bad but could have a few more manners. For a lager it is too much and for a pilsner it is not enough. After a few chugs there is this industrial hint of alcohol lurking around on the back of the tongue.

littlecarp (135) - Redding, California, USA - JUN 3, 2007
Pours gold w/ foamy head that stays well into the pint. Very weak aroma. initially very malty-honey. Lively light palate. Finish is a deeper honey taste w/ some light bitterness. Not spectacular, but drinkable and nice for a sit down.
